1. The Physical set-up
1.1 Modbus & the Network
In the Elektronikon MkIV system all compressors in an installation can be connected by a data and/or control
network. This is done according the Compressor Network Cabling Instruction (9820 3585 00). This instruction
explains what connectors and cables should be used to interconnect the different compressors/controllers in the
network. Basically this is a CAN-based local network.
In order to setup a modbus connection to one or several of the compressors in this network, a special module as to
be inserted in this network.
This module will then behave as a modbus-proxy that allows access to all compressors in the network, whereby
each compressor has its own modbus address (proxy concept).
- 7 -
In this drawing the proxy is used to access the compressors with Node Id 1,2 and 5, by using the modbus addresses
4,8 and 10. (This proxy-conversion table has to be set with proper tools). The Node Id the Proxy itself if 11 on the
CAN side.

1.2 The Module (Combox-S)
For the modbus connection a so-called Combox-S module has to be used (AC n 19000711 41). This is a general
purpose serial communication module. By downloading the correct software in it, it will perform the modbus proxy
function.
Because this is a general purpose module, not all connections/switches will be used for this connection.
For modbus the following will be used
10x14 :
to connect a 24Vac supply
2 top address switches (LAN)
to set the Atlas Copco Lan address (= CAN side address !!), the Fieldbus switches are NOT used,
because the Modbus addresses (proxy) are defined by software and programmed with an external (PC)
software.
10x1:
to connect to the compressor network (CAN)
10x16 :
to connect the RS485 modbus line
The other connectors/switches are NOT used for this application

The module itself can be mounted on a DIN-rail inside one of the compressor cubicles, or on a separate location.
Before installation check the available power of the 24Vac transformer, if connecting to an already supplied
transformer inside a cubicle..

1.6 Software downloading
Before the module can be used for a modbus connection the appropriate software must be loaded. This can be done
by AC Service personal with the AC Field Downloading Program (FDP).
With this program it is also possible to program the modbus/CAN address conversions.
After programming , put power off/on of the combox-S to activate the modbusaddresses.
Before powering the Combox S module , check all cables.
- 15 -
2. Modbus protocol implementation
2.1 Supported modbus specification
The Combox-S when downloaded with the proper modbus software supports the following modbus- variant
RTU mode of transmission
Coding system : binary
Mode : half duplex ( RS485 )
Number of start bits : 1
Number of data bits : 8
Baudrate : 300,600,1200,2400,4800,9600*,19200*,38400
Parity control : even*,odd*,none *
Number of stop bits : 1 or 2
Error checking : CRC-16
* These parameters are defined during downloading of the controller.
Frame synchronization in the RTU mode is done by simulating a synchronous message. The slave device monitors
the elapsed time between receipt of characters. If three character time elapsed without a new character, then the
device assumes that the message is completed and the next byte will be the address
The message frame format is following :
2.2 Supported Modbus functions
The Elektronikon MkIV modbus implemenentation supports the following message type , depending on the type of
data involved (see details below)
Function 01 : read coil status
Function 03 : read holding register
Function 06 : preset single register
Function 08 : loop back test

2.3.2 Inputs & Outputs
2.3.2.1 Analogue Inputs Sensors & Calculated
The Elektronikon MkIV supports up to 55 analogue sensor inputs and 5 additional analogue calculated (virtual)
inputs. Each input has a value and a status register assigned.
The contents of these registers depend on the actual type of sensor that is connected. This can be different for every
type of compressor. E.g. standard compressors may have 1 to 4 pressure inputs, 1 to 10 temperature inputs, up to 7
SPM inputs, Also, features and options may increment the number of sensors that are actually installed on your
compressor.
Before using the modbus system it is therefore required to find out what sensors are really connected to your
compressors. This can e.g. be done with the FDP program. This program has a function that lists the sensors +
modbus registers for a selected compressor type (including features and options).

Once the list of sensors is known, the contents of the registers can be interpreted as described below.

2.3.2.3 Status register Interpretation
High order byte = 00
Low order byte = Input Status
The Input Status must be interpreted as Binary data (bit coded).
Each part ( bit ) of the data ( byte ) is indicating a specific item that applies on the Input function. In the following
table, an overview is given of all bits together with the corresponding meaning and interpretation.

2.3.2.4 Value register Interpretation
This depends on the type of inputs.
2.3.2.4.1 Pressure Input
The Pressure Input Value is a 2 byte integer, and contains the actual reading in mbar (0.001 bar)
For negative values, standard 2-complement notation is used.
Example: Value = 7040 decimal or 0x1B80 hexadecimal = 7.040 bar.
Value = -1000 decimal (2-complement) or 0xFC18 = -1.000 bar
For sensor error the value the value 32767 or 7FFF (hex) is returned.
On some high pressure compressors (with working pressures above 30 bar) a special Pressure Input can be defined
that returns data in cBar (0.01 bar) in stead of mBar.
2.3.2.4.2 Temperature Input
The Temperature Input Value is a 2 byte integer, and contains the actual reading in 0.1C
For negative values, standard 2-complement notation is used.
Example: Value = 855 decimal or 0x0357 hexadecimal = 85.5 C
Value = -250 decimal (2-complement) or 0xFF06 = -25.0 C
For sensor error the value the value 32767 or 7FFF (hex) is returned.

2.3.2.4.6 SPM Input
The SPM Input Value is a 2 byte register that must be seen as 2 x 1 byte.
Byte 1 : carpet value (in dB)
Byte 2 : peak value (in dB)
Example: Value = 0x1120 = > carpet value = 0x11, peak value = 0x20
For sensor error the value the value 0xFFFF (hex) is returned.
SPM values cannot be negative

2.3.2.5 Digital (Voltage free contacts) Inputs
The Elektronikon MkIV supports up to 18 digital (voltage free) inputs. Each input has a value and a status
register assigned.
The contents of these registers is for digital inputs always the same, if the input is used. Before using the modbus
system it is therefore required to find out what inputs are used on your compressors. This can e.g. be done with the
FDP program. This program has a function that lists the digital inputs + modbus registers for a selected compressor
type (including features and options).

Once the list of inputs is known, the contents of the registers can be interpreted as described below.

2.5 Modbus registers and coils for remote control
2.5.1 Control Commands
2.5.1.1 Compressor Control Mode Selection
The Elektronikon MkIV has a number of control modes that define the behaviour of a compressor in relation to
external inputs (pressure reading, start/stop commands,).
Each mode has a main type (= number 1 to 4), and a sub-type (a,b,c,..). The number of sub-types is different for
each main type.
When Modbus has to be used to control a compressor the main type ust be set to 4 (=remote control over
communication line). This has to be done through the display, select LAN Control. By default the compressor
will then enter the 4a mode.
Through Modbus it is now possible to activate the other sub-types.
Functions to be used : writing method: Preset Single Register Function 06
Modbus address Value to write Description Accepted in mode
2002 1 Switch from 4a or 4c to 4b 4a 4c
2 Switch from 4b or 4c to 4a 4b
3 Switch from 4a or 4b to 4c 4a 4b
Note
Mode 4a : remote control of start/stop but pressure control is done by the controller
Mode 4b : remote control of start/stop and pressure control is done from remote (Supervisory control) (also for
VSD setpoint control)
Mode 4c : remote control of start/stop with external speed (only vsd) speed control)
2.5.1.2 Compressor Commands
The commands that are described here are only available in the defined Compressor Control Modes.
Carefully consult the control concept of the compressors before using them.
